Early Corbin cars had 4-cylinder engines air-cooled by two fans set above the cylinders. Water cooling appeared in 1908 on the Corbin, but air-cooling was continued as an alternative until 1910. The 1905 Corbin cars pioneered metal brake-shoes, but this feature was not continued. Later models, all with 4-cylinder engines, were rated at either 32hp or 36hp. A distinctively peaked radiator shell and bonnet was a feature of all Corbin automobiles. The parent company (American Hardware Corp) is still in business.
